CURRENT MISSION

I'd like to say "remember when" not "I wish I would have."

ABOUT ME

I moved to Anchorage, AK in 2001 and haven't left! I love the outdoors and trying new things. I also love cultural events, music, plays - anything creative and artistic. I enjoy reading novels and nature writing - things that make you think and reflect about the world. I travelled Europe when I was in college and am looking to do some more travelling now that my education is behind me (well, mostly). I practice yoga and meditation and everyday wonder.

PHILOSOPHY

The journey is the destination - a good motto.
